In the docs, Tutorial 4 uses the variable `p` for question. I think this
is historical, because the model used to be named `Poll` before #20876.
{{{
p = get_object_or_404(Question, pk=question_id)
}}}
I think that `q` would be an improvement, but `question` would be better.
If we make this change, ideally we would backport to the 1.7.X and 1.8.X
docs, because I've seen users get confused when they mistakenly switch
between different versions in the tutorial. My patch causes a minor
conflict when applied to 1.7.X and 1.8.X, but wouldn't be too hard to fix.
